2/10 Poor

The room was dirty and you could hear the people in the rooms on each side of you. You could hear everything going on in the parking lot in front of your room. The shower made a loud noise when you would turn it on and the bed was terrible.

Catching up with friends at Cal Poly homecoming
Older property, that's fine, updated flooring and tv. Minimal amenities, no breakfast or snacks although McD, Dennys and Ihop next door, grocery store across street. Convenient to 101 and other services, next door is Madonna Inn. Most annoying thing was lack of blackout curtains and intense LED exterior lighting, hard to sleep, not dark enough, super agitating. Review higher if room had the necessary black out drapes! So, cost somewhat high relative to value, I thought...

4/10 Fair

Not restful, excessive contacts
Day of check-in, was harassed via text, email, and phone to give an ETA that I didn't have. Room's AC unit was so loud that it disrupted my sleep. Bed blanket was rough and scratchy. Hotel WiFi timed out every time I attempted to connect. Shower pipes rattled like a failing engine when in use. Received another amount text the next morning regarding checkout time.

2/10 Poor

Not going to be a next time
The only good thing was the price and even then I should have known better. Walking into the room we were hit with an awful smell of old food. The microwave needs to be replaced it smells like spaghetti and a mixture of other smells. When the heater kicked on it’s too close to the fire alarm so it went off in the early morning. Every time water was turned on somewhere it rattles the walls so sleeping through the night was not an option either. Instead of sleeping in we decided to drive home after this one night stay “vacation”.

This is my to go stay place when in San Luis Obispo, the only reason I didn't stay this last time is because they change the stay price or either they didn't take in consideration my rewards.
